Molinaro, McCarthy, and Millionaires: Congressman Invites Far- Right House Speaker to Meet With His Biggest Donors
SULLIVAN COUNTY, NEW YORK — This evening, Congressman Molinaro is holding a fundraiser with Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy. The Congressman will host a private reception before the event, with VIP tickets starting at $1,000. Rep. Molinaro’s invite to Speaker McCarthy, whom he votes with over 90% of the time, is just another reminder of how aligned he actually is with the far-right agenda of congressional Republicans.
Alongside Speaker McCarthy, Molinaro has continually prioritized the wealthy—continuing a trend he began in Dutchess County. In just 8 months, Rep. Molinaro has:
Voted to give $6 billion in tax cuts to large oil and gas corporations
Voted to make it harder for seniors to access Medicare and Social Security benefits
“Rep. Molinaro has continued to show us that he doesn’t represent the people of NY-19; he represents the interests of corporate special interests and the ultra-wealthy,” said Maria Martinez, Executive Director of Empire State Voices. “Tonight’s fundraiser is just further proof of what we already knew: Marc Molinaro is wining and dining with millionaires while the rest of us struggle to get by.”
